Maine Teen Driver Laws

In Maine, new drivers under 18 must go through the state’s Graduated Driver License (GDL) system. Teens can apply for a learner’s permit at 15 and progress to an intermediate license at 16 with at least 70 hours of supervised practice. Full driving privileges are granted after holding a provisional license for 270 days, or at age 16 years and 9 months.

Since teen drivers are considered higher risk, Maine law requires all teen drivers to be covered under an active auto insurance policy. Adding a teen to your GEICO policy helps you stay compliant with state law while protecting your family from the costs of accidents or liability claims.
